The Carolina Herrera models walked through three, adjoining, old-world luxurious rooms... A much better set-up than a runway would have been for these gowns inspired by a variety of artists. The styling was superb—adventurous and elegant—a rare combo that no one does better than Carolina Herrera. If it's possible, and I think it is, for a wedding gown to be described as "intelligent," then these were those. Granted my photos don't do justice to the crafting of these dresses, but they were impeccable. Real runway shots are up in our gallery, and follow us on Twitter for more sneak peeks. —Julie Raimondi
